GIF/video does not have a transparent background

We don't currently support embedded GIFs/Videos with transparent backgrounds. This is due to limits with our demuxer and the video codec Figma uses in their design environment.

⚠️ Results if attempt

If you attempt to export an embedded GIF/Video with a transparent background, it will produce an overlapping effect like in the image below.

✅ Intended result

❌ Actual result

🔧 How to fix

We recommend adding a solid background to the GIF file with the tool you used to create the original GIF file.
